Nothing to Crow about

Rock Expert | Montgomery, AL USA | 12/30/1999

(3 out of 5 stars)

"A lot of music for the money but nothing to crow about. If you know Atomic Rooster then you know Death Walks and In Hearing are their best. If your new to their music get those cds first. This is good for the fans to get some later stuff and live takes. Atomic Rooster gave us Carl Palmer and the wonderful Vincent Crane on keyboards. Very cool progressive music from the 70's. Enjoy."

Not the best, but not bad either!

Shades Below | Tacoma, WA U.S.A. | 10/26/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"A great bulk of this CD collection is from the self-titled album they did in 1980 for EMI in Britain, minus one cut ("In The Shadows"). It's not a bad record, but just as they had reunited, EMI threw money at them to make a record, and so all aspects of it were very rushed, and it didn't do anything when it came out. One of the best things about the album is Preston Heyman's hard, solid drumming. Paul Hammond eventually returned on drums.
Other tracks on here include subsequent single cuts and some unreleased material on disc 2, the best being the alternate version of "End Of The Day", and the non-LP cut "Throw Your Life Away"."
